Here you will find practical tips and further information for your stay.
Gütersloh is a city in North Rhine-Westphalia known for its diverse attractions. One of the highlights is the
Gütersloh Theater, a modern guest theater with 530 seats. It not only showcases its own productions but also hosts music events in the rock-pop genre, cabaret performances, theater shows, and readings. The International Singing Competition Neue Stimmen and Jazz in
Gütersloh are particularly noteworthy.
For those interested in history, the
Gütersloh City Museum is a must-visit. Here, visitors can learn about the city's history and embark on a journey through time. The Miele Museum is also worth a visit, where one can experience the history of the well-known household appliance manufacturer up close.
The "Mühlenstroth" area is a popular destination for families with children and cyclists. It features a restaurant, a children's playground, and a train that travels around the area. The churches in
Gütersloh are also worth seeing. The neo-Gothic Martin Luther Church and the Catholic Parish Church of St. Pankratius are particularly impressive. The church ring development in the area of the Apostelkirche with half-timbered houses from the 17th and 18th centuries is almost completely preserved.
The
Gütersloh City Theater is one of the most modern theater buildings of recent times and offers a varied program for every taste. On Advent Sundays, singers roam the streets singing traditional Advent songs, creating a special atmosphere.
Culinarily,
Gütersloh has much to offer. Pumpernickel, hearty Westphalian cuisine, and Pickert are typical specialties that one should definitely try. Drink specialties include Steinhäger juniper schnapps, Schroeder's Boonekamp digestive bitter, and beer specialties brewed at
Gütersloh Brewery.
For those looking for a cozy accommodation after an eventful day in
Gütersloh, the
PÖLTER bei MARKUS T is recommended. The
hotel is only 12 km from the Japanese Garden in Bielefeld and offers free Wi-Fi and free private parking. There is a playground for children, and a communal lounge invites guests to relax.
In 1989, the tourist association failed in its attempt to create more specialties - but that's not necessary!
Gütersloh already has enough to discover and enjoy. Whether it's culture, history, or cuisine - there's something for everyone here!
